Making Sure You Will Not Be Left Behind <\/strong>– Part Two<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026 give diligence to make your calling and election sure \u2026\u201d <\/em>-2 Peter 1:10<\/p>\n

By Mike Wingfield<\/p>\n

Are you a true follower of Christ? In this newsletter, we will continue our examination of the most important ques\u00adtion a person must answer while here on earth. Last month, we examined the first of nine tests on assurance of salvation that are found in the little New Testament book of 1 John. The theme of this book is found in chapter 5 and verse 13: \u201cThese things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that [you] may know that [you] have eternal life\u2026\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

In this issue we will look at the next four tests. The re\u00admaining four tests will be given in our August newsletter. I highly recommend that you carefully read these newslet\u00adters and look up the Scriptures referenced. As mentioned in the previous newsletter, when you look at the lifestyles of professing Christians, it seems that most of them are not saved. You do not want to be deceived and miss the Rapture, or more importantly, heaven. I urge you to study these Biblical tests and make sure you will not be left be\u00adhind. This could make the difference in where you will spend eternity.<\/p>\n

Test #2-Do you keep God\u2019s Commandments? <\/strong><\/p>\n

1 John 2:3-6 Verse 3 declares: \u201cAnd hereby we do know that we know <\/em>[have a relationship] him, if we keep his commandments.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

If you are God\u2019s child, then you will obey the Lord\u2019s commands.<\/p>\n

Obedience to the Lord is a very clear indication that God is our Father and friend. Jesus continually repeated this on the night he was betrayed by one of His own disciples.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you love me, keep my commandments.\u201d <\/em>(John 14:15) \u201cIf a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father <\/em>will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings \u2026\u201d <\/em>(John 14:23-24) \u201cIf ye keep my command\u00adments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my <\/em>Father\u2019s commandments, and abide in his love.\u201d <\/em>(John 15:10)<\/p>\n

From a Biblical standpoint, there are two vital issues at stake in this second test: (1) Is Jesus really the Lord of your life? (2) Are you the servant of the Lord Jesus Christ? A study of the entire New Testament gives testi\u00admony to these two core issues.<\/p>\n

Issue #1: Is Jesus really the Lord of your life? A few years back, there was a great debate in Christian circles about this subject. Some people believe that they can be a Christian if Jesus is just their Savior, but not their Lord. They believe that at some point later in their life, they reach a greater spiritual maturity level and Jesus then becomes their Lord. This debate and kind of thinking quickly reveals the lack of understanding many people have concerning what the New Testament teaches about true salvation. I urge all of us to not formulate what we believe on the basis of personal experience, or how we feel about Jesus and salvation. <\/strong>Our doctrine (what we believe) must be based totally upon the written Word of God \u2013 the Bible! The Bible must be our final authority in all matters of faith and practice! It does not matter what someone else says or believes. It does not matter what your church or pastor believes. If it does not conform to the literal interpretation of the Bible, they are wrong and God is right! Jesus declared that He and His Word are \u201ctruth.\u201d <\/em>(John 14:6) When we arrive at a different con\u00adclusion than what Scripture teaches, \u201cwe make him a liar, and his word is not in us.\u201d <\/em>(1 John 1:10) Certainly, true believers would never call Jesus and His Word lies!<\/p>\n

The Bible declares: \u201cThat if thou shalt confess with thy <\/em>mouth <\/em>the Lord <\/strong><\/em>Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

(Romans 10:9) There it is! You must confess that Jesus Christ is your Lord to be saved. When a person becomes a Christian, they become a disciple (follower) of Jesus Christ. When you follow Him, you spiritually mimic Him. Jesus said: \u201cMy sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.\u201d <\/em>(John 10:27)<\/p>\n

The word \u201cLord\u201d <\/em>also means \u201cMaster.\u201d <\/em>(See John 13:14\u00ad15.) This means that Jesus, not self, is in control of your life. This is at the heart of repentance. The Bible de\u00ad<\/strong>mands that a person must repent in order to be saved. (Acts 2:38; 2 Corinthians 7:10) Repentance is a change in mind that leads to a change in action. At the moment of true conversion, the sinner recognizes that he must com\u00adpletely surrender his will and life to the lordship of Jesus Christ. Jesus told His disciples: \u201cIf any man will come after [follow] me, let him deny himself, and take up his <\/em>cross, and follow me.\u201d <\/em>(Matthew 16:24) Therefore, from the moment of a person\u2019s genuine conversion, he must view Jesus as his Lord.<\/p>\n

Issue #2-Are you the servant of Lord Jesus Christ? Throughout the New Testament, Christians are viewed as bond-slaves of Jesus Christ. The apostles viewed them\u00adselves as \u201ca servant [bond-slave] of Jesus Christ.\u201d <\/em>(Ro\u00admans 1:1; James 1:1) The apostles frequently called New Testament believers \u201cservants\u201d <\/em>of Jesus Christ. (Revela\u00adtion 1:1) The Bible illustrates the salvation of the believ\u00ader in the cultural terms of the slave market of ancient days. When a master purchased a slave at an auction, that slave immediately became his property. In 1 Corinthians 6, the Apostle Paul reminded the Corinthian believers, who were living in a sensual and immoral culture, that they were not to give their bodies over to sexual immorality because their body belonged to their Master, Jesus Christ. (1 Co\u00adrinthians 6:19-20) Therefore, in the truest Biblical image\u00adry, the New Testament believer must see himself as a bondservant of Jesus Christ. He is no longer in control of himself. His master is Jesus Christ. He is a purchased possession of the Lord Jesus. If he does not agree to this, then he is still in the slave market of sin, serving his sin-nature and under the sentence of condemnation. (Romans 6:16-22)<\/p>\n

However, as described in 1 John 1, there are no believers who can say they do not sin. This is the struggle of the Christian life. (Romans 7:7-25) When we are victorious over sin, Jesus is Lord of our life at that moment. But, when we sin, self is back on the throne. However, as we grow and mature in our love commitment to the Lord Je\u00adsus, we will mature in our battle over our sin nature and Jesus will more consistently be Lord of our lives. (1 John 5:1-5) The true believer is not marked by sinless perfec\u00adtion, but as growing in their victory over sin.<\/p>\n

Test #3-Do you love other believers? <\/strong><\/p>\n

1 John 2:7-11 As the Apostle John penned these words near the end of the first century, he reminded his readers that this was not a new commandment, but one which goes back to the life and witness of the incarnate Lord Jesus. Jesus said: \u201cBy this shall all men know that [you] are my disciples, if [you] have love one to another.\u201d <\/em>(John 13:35)<\/p>\n

The believer in Jesus Christ will be marked by a genuine love for all people. All people have been equally created in the image of God, and Christ died for all. We have been commissioned to take the gospel to all people. This commission is driven by the love of God through us to the world. It is \u201cthe love of Christ [that constrains] us\u201d <\/em>to be witnesses of the love of God displayed at the cross of Cal\u00advary. (2 Corinthians 5:14-20) Jesus loved sinners. Do you?<\/p>\n

However, for those who walk in the light of God\u2019s revela\u00adtion and are related to Him and each other, there is a common bond of love through the divine work of the Holy Spirit in all believers to love God and one another. \u201cWe know that we have passed from death unto life, because <\/em>we love the brethren.\u201d <\/em>(1 John 3:14)<\/p>\n

This love for fellow believers is not the nature of the world. (1 John 3:11-19) The world hates the true believ\u00aders in Jesus Christ. (John 15:18-16:2; 1 John 3:13) In contrast, Christians love one another because it is the na\u00adture of God. (1 John 4:7-21) Therefore, when we love other believers, we are behaving like God. \u201cIf a man say, I love God, and [hates] his brother, he is a liar: for he that [loves] not his brother whom he [has] seen, how can he love God whom he [has] not seen?\u201d <\/em>(1 John 4:20)<\/p>\n

This love that we have in the family of God will be mani\u00adfested by two actions: (1) We will forgive one another, and (2) We will give to one another. Christ\u2019s love for us was demonstrated when He gave His life for us when were sinners. (Romans 5:8) And now, it is continually mani\u00adfested in that He is \u201cfaithful and just to forgive us our sins.\u201d <\/em>(1 John 1:9) Consequently, we are to demonstrate our love to the family of God by freely and frequently for\u00adgiving fellow believers when they sin against us. (Ephe\u00adsians 4:20-32) Furthermore, when our brother or sister is in need, we are to demonstrate the love of God by sacrifi\u00adcially giving of ourselves, just as Christ sacrificed for us. (1 John 3:16-18) The greatest act of love is to lay down our life for another person\u2019s life. (John 15:13; 1 John 3:16) This kind of giving and forgiving is not an act of convenience, but a demonstration of sacrifice.<\/p>\n

Test #4-Do you love God? <\/strong><\/p>\n

1 John 2:15-17 It should seem obvious that if a person claims to be a Christian, he should also love God. In essence, this is the greatest of all the commandments given to us. And yet, it is one of the most misunderstood. When Jesus was asked to identify the greatest commandment, He responded: \u201cThou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment.\u201d <\/em>(Matthew 22:37-38) So, the real question is not: \u201cDo you love God?\u201d The real ques\u00adtion is: \u201cDo you love the Lord more than anyone or any\u00adthing else?\u201d Jesus demands this kind of love from all of His children.<\/p>\n

How can a person realistically measure their love for the Lord? In 1 John 2:15-17, the Bible gives us the answer to this question. This text basically asks two questions: \u201cDo you love God or do you love the world system in which you live? You must make a choice. You cannot love and serve both. (Matthew 6:24) The word translated love in this text is not a feeling kind of friendship love. It is a kind of love that sacrifices everything for the object that is loved. What the Bible is asking us in this text is: \u201cAre you sacrificing everything in your life to gain the treasures of a godless world system that is only temporary? Or, are you sacrificing everything in this world system to know Christ and demonstrate your sacrificial devotion to Him as the highest level of priority in your life?\u201d<\/p>\n

A person\u2019s pursuit of this world system is described as<\/p>\n

\u201cthe lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life.\u201d <\/em>(1 John 2:16) The lust of the flesh is an obsession to gratify the cravings of the sin nature within all of us. The lust of the eyes is an obsession to see won\u00adderful things (both good and sinful) for the sake of pleas\u00ading self. The pride of life is the personal devotion and focus upon what the world system promotes as the pur\u00adpose and meaning in life.<\/p>\n

One must understand that the world system, controlled by Satan, is designed to promote a lifestyle that is independ\u00adent of God and dependent upon self. In essence, it is what Satan offered Eve when he tempted her to reject God and have what she wanted. Genesis 3:6 says, \u201cAnd when the woman saw that the tree was good for food <\/em>[the lust of the flesh], and that is was pleasant to the eyes <\/em>[the lust of the eyes], and a tree to be desired to make one wise <\/em>[the pride of life], she took of the fruit thereof and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.\u201d <\/em>Nothing has changed! Satan is still using the same world system to promote a lifestyle that is independent of God and de\u00adpendent upon self.<\/p>\n

So, if you really love God as a child of God, you will sac\u00adrificially seek to place Him first in all of your desires, feel\u00ading, plans, and ambitions in life. Do you sacrificially give God your time, talents, and treasures that He has entrusted to you? I fear that very few believers understand that this is what is expected and demanded by their LORD! The Lord has promised that if we put Him first, He will give us what we need to equip us to worship and serve Him. \u201cBut <\/em>seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.\u201d <\/em>(Matthew 6:33) \u201cTrust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy <\/em>bones.\u201d <\/em>(Proverbs 3:5-8)<\/p>\n

Here is the real test: \u201cFor where your treasure is, there will be your heart <\/em>[mind] be also.\u201d <\/em>(Matthew 6:21) What do you think about the most? What or whom you constantly think about is your treasure! How often do you think about God, His Word, His will, and His plan? Is it your greatest desire to know Him and please Him? Are you sacrificing whatever it takes to move toward these godly desires? This is not what super Christians do; it is what all true believers do!<\/p>\n

I discovered long ago that the greatest measuring stick of one\u2019s love for their Savior is their love for and commit\u00adment to the Word of God. Real believers cannot live without the Word of God. It is a consuming passion to read, study, memorize and mediate upon the Bible. This is the theme of the longest chapter in the Bible \u2013 Psalm 119. Someone has said: \u201cTwo natures beat within my breast.<\/p>\n

The one will damn, the other will bless. The one I love, the other I hate. The one that I feed will dominate.\u201d<\/p>\n

Test #5-Do you regularly fellowship with other believers in a local church? <\/strong><\/p>\n

1 John 2:19 The professing churches in the United States and the American culture are moving further away from God and His Word. Consequently, it is becoming increasingly dif\u00adficult for some believers to find a local church where the Word of God is being faithfully proclaimed and the lead\u00adership of the church is a faithful model of godliness.<\/p>\n

The word church comes from the Greek word which means \u201ccalled out ones.\u201d The church is made up of those born-again believers who have been redeemed by receiv\u00ading Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, and are set apart from the world system by the Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n

The ministry of the church is the work of the Holy Spirit. He brings individual believers to salvation. (1 Corinthians 12:3) He equips each believer to serve within the church. (1 Corinthians 12:4-11) It is His work to immerse each one into the body of Christ and direct them to become a vital part of a local church. (1 Corinthians 12:12-14) It is the design and desire of the Holy Spirit who lives in every true believer to unite each believer with an assembly of believers. (Ephesians 4:1-6, 25; 1 Corinthians 10:17)<\/p>\n

According to the Bible, in this Age of Grace, God\u2019s work is primarily orchestrated through the local church. 1 John 2:19 describes the kind of attitude that is prevalent among many professing Christians today. They do not think they need the church. They believe they can worship and serve God on their own. According to this text, when a person rejects the church and attempts to experience the Christian life on their own, it is an indication that they are not saved.<\/p>\n

Most people think they can get what they need from tele\u00advision pastors and evangelists. However, the ministry of the local church is not a place to just receive instruction from God. It is the body of Christ. It is a community of believers who regularly meet together for worship, fellow\u00adship, and Biblical instruction. It is God\u2019s design that the body of Christ serves Him and each other. All believers need to be loved, taught, encouraged, rebuked, and coun\u00adseled. (2 Timothy 4:2-4; Hebrews 10:24-25) Believers need other believers in the local church, who have been called and gifted by God, to help them mature in the faith.<\/p>\n

(Acts 2:41-47; Ephesians 4:1-16; 1 Corinthians 12)<\/p>\n

Notice that when the apostles obeyed the Lord\u2019s great commission to go out into the world and make disciples and baptize them, they always planted churches where the converts lived. (Acts 14:21-23) They trained the leader\u00adship to proclaim the Word of God and to disciple the be\u00adlievers.<\/p>\n

There is no real Biblical excuse to give up on the church. Even with all of its problems, the Apostle Paul exhorted the believers in the church at Corinth toward unity and service within the local assembly of believers. There are no perfect churches, pastors, or believers. God has de\u00adsigned the church to be an assembly of believers who are united by the Holy Spirit and their commitment to the Word of God. (Ephesians 4:1-6) They are bound together to equip each other to worship and serve their Lord, and to evangelize the world with the saving gospel of Jesus Christ. They help each other mature in their faith and build each other up in their faith until they are called into Jesus\u2019 presence. (Ephesians 4:11-16) They recognize that they will not be perfect until they are presented to Christ as His perfect bride on their wedding day \u2013 the Rapture. (Ephesians 5:25-32) Real believers need and love the body of Christ.<\/p>\n

I will conclude this three-part article on the assurance of salvation in the next newsletter. We will examine the last four of the nine tests for making sure you will not be left behind.<\/p>\n

Israel Turns 66 <\/strong><\/p>\n

In May, Israel celebrated its 66th <\/sup>birthday as a resurrected modern nation. This nation, like no other, is the product of divine calling and intervention in the history of the world. Long ago, the Lord declared: \u201cFor I will take you from among the heathen <\/em>[Gentile nations], and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own <\/em><\/p>\n

land.\u201d <\/em>(Ezekiel 36:24) When the nation of Israel was founded in 1948, there were only 806,000 Israelis. Only 35 percent of them were na\u00adtive-born. According to the Israeli Central Bureau of Sta\u00adtistics, the estimated population of Israel now stands at 8.18 million. Jewish people, 6.135 million, make up about 75 percent of Israel\u2019s current population. The Arab popu\u00adlation in Israel is reported to be 1.694 million, or about 20 percent of the total population.<\/p>\n

Within the last year, Israel\u2019s population grew by 157,000. About 24,000 of these were new immigrants. Now about 75 percent of the Jewish population are native-born Israe\u00adlis.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 1948, Israel had only one city in which the population exceeded 100,000, Tel Aviv-Jaffa. Today, 14 cities have populations of more than 100,000, of which six have more than 200,000 residents: Jerusalem, Tel-Aviv-Jaffa, Haifa, Rishon, Lezion, Ashdod, and Petah Tikva, according to the report.\u201d (The International Jerusalem Post<\/em>, May 9\u00adMay 15, 2014, p. 9)<\/p>\n

Palestinians Hate Israel and Jews <\/strong><\/p>\n

Throughout the last few decades, there has been a game of deceitful chess being played in the name of peace in the Middle East. Several U.S. administrations have made many attempts to bring the Israelis and Palestinians to a successful peace agreement. Many Israelis truly desire peace with their Palestinian neighbors. During these ne\u00adgotiations for peace, the Israelis have made numerous painful concessions and given up land that has made them more vulnerable to attack from their Arab\/Islamic ene\u00admies. At the same time, the Palestinians have refused to recognize the legitimacy of the Jewish state of Israel. Fur\u00adthermore, the Palestinians have not departed from the in\u00adcitement of hatred and violence they express against all Israelis.<\/p>\n

Two recent developments have clearly revealed the hy\u00adpocrisy of the Palestinians and their falsehood of working toward achieving peace with their Jewish neighbors. First, the Anti-Defamation League recently announced the re\u00adsults of a very comprehensive global survey on anti-Semitism. They report: \u201cThe most anti-Semitic regions were found to be the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Pal\u00adestinian anti-Semitism is \u2018pervasive throughout society.\u2019 \u2026 with 93 percent of respondents affirming anti-Jewish stereotypes.\u201d (The International Jerusalem Post<\/em>, May 16\u00ad22, 2014, p. 09) Many other sources confirm these find\u00adings. It is obvious that real peace of any kind is impossi\u00adble where such hatred and violence toward Jews is openly promoted in all aspects of that culture. How can you real\u00adistically promote peace with a people you hate and want to kill?<\/p>\n

All of this has been openly confirmed with the recent de\u00adcision by the so-called \u201cmoderate\u201d Palestinian leadership on the West Bank in its attempt to form a unity govern\u00adment with the radical Islamic terrorist government of Ha-mas in the Gaza Strip. The charter of Hamas calls for the compete annihilation of the Jewish state of Israel and the establishment of an Islamic Palestinian state from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River. Since 2005, Ha-mas has launched more than 11,000 rockets and mortars against southern Israel. Hamas has made it clear that it will not moderate its harsh stance against Israel to ac\u00adcommodate a political marriage with Fatah, the Palestinian leadership on the West Bank.<\/p>\n

The refusal of Western governments to condemn the Pal\u00adestinians for their decision to form a unified government with an Islamic terrorist organization bent on the destruc\u00adtion of Israel reveals the outright moral collapse of West\u00adern societies. When people support criminal governments that promote the murder of innocent civilians, and at the same time, condemn democratic governments that uphold the premise that all people are created in the image of God and deserve to be free and respected, then that culture has reached the spiritual point of no return. Such a culture is ripe for divine judgment.<\/p>\n

ISIS and the Antichrist\u2019s Kingdom <\/strong><\/p>\n

In recent months, a very powerful radical Islamic terrorist group called the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has taken control of Iraq and some territories in Syria. ISIS now controls Mosul, the second largest city in Iraq and the entire Iraqi western border with Syria. There is great con\u00adcern that ISIS may attempt to take control of Jordan and Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n

According to Joel Rosenberg, an American communica\u00adtions strategist and author who closely monitors develop\u00adments in the Middle East, \u201cThe objective of the ISIS lead\u00aders is to topple the Iraqi government, seize control of all of Iraq, establish a jihadist state under Sharia law, and use Iraq to begin a regional –and eventually global –Islamic caliphate, or kingdom.\u201d (Blog by Joel Rosenberg) For those of us who study the prophetic Word, we recognize that this is a very significant development. According to the Bible, during the Tribulation Period, the Antichrist will control the world from his headquarters in Iraq. (Isai\u00adah 14:4) Iraq, the central area of the former ancient Bab\u00adylonian Empire, will be the hub of global economic con\u00adtrol (Zechariah 5:5-11), and political -religious control of the Antichrist\u2019s empire. (Isaiah 13; Revelation 17-18) These developments and many other current events are setting the stage for the end-time events as outlined in the Bible. In light of this, we may be on the verge of a major war in the Middle East that will pave the way for the com\u00ading of the Islamic Messiah \u2013 the Madhi. I am convinced the Islamic Messiah will be the one described in the Bible as the Antichrist. Consequently, it would be wise to be listening for the shout that will take us out.<\/p>\n
